Baking pnm6rr,
FOOD,

A large proportion of the baking powders in the
market contain Ammonia, Alum, Acid Phos-
pilates, and as matter of prudence housel1eepers
should insist upon knowing ALL the ingredients
of their favorite brand. knowledge of one of
the ingredients is of little value as it is no
guarantee of the wholesomeness of the others
hence no reliance should be placed on any
baking powder unless the manufacturers plainly
state each and every ingredient used in it's
preparation.
If your patronage for a baking powder has been
obtained by artfuly written advertisements extern
svely circulated, note carefully whether or not
its manufacturers mpart to the public knowl-
edge of every ingredient that enters into their
compound Where this information is withheld
would it not be wise to discontinue the use of
that particular kind of baking powder and
purchase instead one pure and free from
Objectionable ingredients that there is in it
nothing to conceal?
Clevelands Superior Baking Powder is made
only of strictly pure Grape Cream of Tartar,
Bicarbonate of Soda, and small portion of -four,
and does not contain Ammonia, Alum Lime,
Acid Phosphates, or any adulteraton whatever.

Front the Jaokson0iHe FId.) Tjmes- Uni n.
An incident occurred in the Mayors
court yesterday morning, which is
worthy of note, ana very forcibly estsb-
lished the fact that warm and generous
impulses very often emanate from the
most unexpected source, and proved that
heart pulsatlng with magnanim0us ard
ursetisn Instincts is often found beneath
the ragged habilments OF those whose lot
in lite seems cast only among its shadows.
On Monday Daniel Mcdonnell, a pale
and delicate looking lad about II or IA
wears OF axe, was committed to jail by
Mayor NcQaid for ten days on the charge
OF vagrancy. Yesterday a sturdy youth
of about the same age, put bearing the
unmstakable evidence of having seen
outy the rough slue of this world, pre-
scented himself before the Mayor and asked
the privilege of taking young McDonnePs
place in jail and serving out his SEN
fence, giving as a reason for his request
that Mcdonnell was sufferer from
asthma. and be feared that ten davs' con-
hnement in the city Jail would terminate
very seriously for the young unfortunate,
whose only Offense was that be was poor.
His honor looked with astonishment upon
the pleading countenance OF this urseltish
touched by this magnanimeus display OF
generous and abiding friendship, at once
ordered young McD0lnePs release at
which announcement the little manly
teflew's9ace presented picture that was
PIP sslhg 60 look upon, so radiant WAS 1t
beaping Ger with smiles Of gratitude.
THIS little hero gave his name as Charles
Foster. and said he was from Memphis
Tenn, and when questioned by one of the
'bystanders as to the reason of bis strange
proposition to the Mayor, in reply the little
fellow said: "Well, Danny 10 a friend OF
mine. and stood by me when was in a
hight FIX, and l propose to do the same
hg him. Danny's home is in Omans,
Neb., and he is here withou

not healthy, aud ii he should be compelled

thought the best way to repay his kind
ness to nue. was to offer to take his place"
such generous action on the part OF one
whose life runs in such hard lines de-
serves more than passing notice, and is
worthy of emulation by others upon whom
fortune has more laVishly bestowed her

TIE HISTORY OF HIS CASE.

In small blank book, the beginning of
which contained in print the constitution
and rules OF the Missionary Society Of the
First Baptist Church, CIuverius had made
a summary of the main points in his case,
and had listed against each item the
names of mis- witnesses. Many OF
these persons were never summoned, or
if summoned were not examined.
On the subject OF the lewd poetry found
in Lillian's trunk and proved to be In the
handwriting of CluVerius. he had put
down three names-cwO of them we'll
known personal friends of his.
They were not put on the stand.
in this book also was partially sketched
the statement OF his movements here on
NJ arch 13-the paper that was afterward
elaborated and submitted to the Gov
ernor. Nowhere appears the name OF any
lady who could prove that sne saw him
at Mozart Hall on The night in question.

A Gale and n Ram.

LI
Milwaukee, Aug. 9-About s O'Clock
to night a gale swept oyer this city, the
wind blowing at the rate of a mile a
minute. The main building and several
miner structures OF the state fair
grounds at Cold Spring park were COM
pletely wrecked. A heavy rain fell, last.
ing en- honr. Adyices received at the
rail way ( fiji ,es indicate that the rain is
pretty general throughout the state,
putting an end to drouth that has lasted
for sixty days, and that has
caused thousands of dollars loss
to farmers. Reports from the
southern tier OF counties are to the effect
that wells and creeks are all dried up
and that farmers have been compelled
to emove their stock to places where
they could ecnre water. The dry con-
ditlon of the country has caused fires to
spread with great rapidlty and for several
dsys the farmers have been blowing
large burrows around their hay stacks to
prevent their summers work from going
up in flames. To-night's rain will at.
ford only temporary relief, however, I'M
less there is more OF it soon.

JeR Davis Talks Again.

New York, August 8-The World pub
fishes q letter from jefferson Davis in
relation to the story of his proposed
assassination during the war at the
hands of a convict Liberated from the
Pennsylvania penitentiary by Governor
Curtin. Mr.. Davis says his only know
ledge of the matter was conveyed in an
anonymous letter. Governor Curtin
says ne released the convict upon what
he supposed to be a request from the
United States was department, but the
papers turned out to be forgeries. Davis,
in his note to the World, criticises
Governor Curtin rather sharply, and
correots two misstatements on his part.
First" says Mr.. Davis, shat l
had made q public accusation against
him and that / had alleged that he was
to pay 800 600 to a desperate for my
assassination. ALL this is based on q
newspaper article purpolting TO be q
report of an interview held with me for
publication by q newspaper oorrespon-
dent. Such was not the case. The
aVowal of Governor Curtin's zeal to
maintain the government by honorable
warfare. and the denial that be ever
resorted to such means for the conduct
OF the wal mark q commendable appre-
citation of the obligations of civilized
war, and it is q pity that there should
be anything to interrup the current of
Eelflaudation."

While en- Route,
Blue-Bear and Gray-Eagle, the two
Rrule Sioux Indians who were arrested
in the upper..country some weeks ago
and brought TO Yankton as United
States prisoners, charged with highway
robbery, have stood their confinement
In the usual Indian manner with
stoicism and closed mouths. Gray
Eagle has been apparently o%ontented,
but Blue Bear hes brooded and ohatfed
somewhat because of being denied his
liberty. About $50 yesterday afternoon
he was discovered in ON attempt to free
himself. he proposed "going up the
hume" and to this end he unfastened a
half inch chain from the iron bed
in his cell, tied q clip
moose in it, placed the moose around his
neck, hooked the other end of the chain
over a large staple in the wall, stood up on
the bedstead, gave u jump into space
and was soon fairly on the way to glory.
He became sick of the bargain after q
minute OF suspense and two other prison.
ers We're aroused by his Rroans, which are
described as resembling the noise which
o half strangled calf would make. A
prisoner named Blackburn finally en-
tered the cell and with the assistance
of another man took Blue-Bear down
and placed MN tenderly on o bench. A
physician wal called and after admins
tering to the poor Lo he stated that if
one moment more had elapsed before
Blue-Bear had been taken down. his
war whoops would have been mingled
with those of Brave-Bear on the other
shore. Blue-Bear is o very sick Indian
and his brother aborigine. Gray-Eagle,
is SO heartily Disguised with him that
he expresses his opinion by saying:
"Heap dalnfool." Blue Bear reelinet
on an %improvised cot in the lobby Of
the Jail and he is SO weary that the hlel
which meander over his body are andis-
turbed. In searching his bed yesterday

from the jail for some weeks, wssfouno
